Hi,

I have a package to generate thumbnails (mystic thumbs) installed in windows. I would like to disable XYplorer thumbnails feature in order to mystic thumbs operates the thumbnails creation inside XYplorer. I mean, I wanna replace XYplorer thumbnails with 'mystic thumbs'. How to do it?

Thanks in advance,
Cadu

OK, simply tick these:
Configuration | Thumbnails | Super-fast thumbnails
Configuration | Thumbnails | Enable shell thumbnails

Then all thumbs are made through the shell, which in your case will be thru 'mystic thumbs'.

Hi. I can't see these settings in XYplorer 19.20 anymore:
Configuration | Thumbnails | Super-fast thumbnails
Configuration | Thumbnails | Enable shell thumbnails
Snapshot my settings: https://www.evernote.com/l/AebL_cbYR4JK ... uP03An9Ag/

Does anyone know to enable shell thumbnails currently?

Actually, I need mostly to see in XYplorer small icons in detail view. I can see them in Windows Explorer, but not in XYplorer.

Thanks for the assistance!

Check out Configuration/Preview/Thumbnails.

Thanks for the reply!

However, I couldn't see this option:
Check out Configuration/Preview/Thumbnails.
Here a snapshot of my Configuration/Preview screen: https://www.evernote.com/l/AebL_cbYR4JK ... uP03An9Ag/

And here I show the icons thumbnails generated and seen in Windows Explorer properly, and that in XYplorer after refreshing thumbnail/icon cache they are shown "blank". Nothing. What I'm trying to accomplish in XYplorer is simply to see those icons as images (use the shell thumbs).

Any direction?

Thanks for the reply!

I could see preview>thumbnails, but all tweaks I performed didn't show the small "icons as images".

As shown in the screencast, in Windows Explorer I can see the icons thumbnails generated by MysticThumbs. In XYplorer, after refreshing thumbnail/icon cache, the icons are shown "blank": https://drive.google.com/open?id=1y9Kzt ... mJDfVTXOHu

I'm trying to accomplish in XYplorer to see those icons as images (use the shell thumbs).

Any further direction?

Thanks!

There is no "icons as images" in XYplorer. This is not supported.

Are you doing this MysticThumbs "icons as images" only for PNG files? I might be able to add this in a future version...

Mostly for PNG files. It would be great to see "icons as images" in XYplorer!
Thanks

There is a tweak that *might* work. What happens if you do this?

Code: Select all

SpecificIconsCustom=png

Nothing happened. No effect. After applying the tweak, I even did "View>Chaces>Refresh icons".

Strange, it should work. Are you sure that the tweak was written and read?
